Noone gave a crap about this format on this site until Google decided to not add it to Chrome. Noone used it, no posts were upvoted. It just became a thing when it was yet another reason to rant at Google.
Note how noone is asking Mozilla why Firefox won't support it or actually building websites using it.
Actually, lots of people were talking about it, and lots of people at big companies like Facebook were excited when Google added it behind a flag. Shopify even rolled out JXL to their storefronts not long after JXL was added to Chrome.

People do ask why Firefox isn't supporting it, but the answer is obvious: because Chrome dropped it, and Firefox has what, 5% market share?
And people do use it on websites, you just didn't notice because companies like Nike don't tend to write up blog articles about how they're using a cool new image format.

How is that an excuse not to lead and show its usefulness via an example?
